    Solution Overview
    You will pass the PAD output (PC_DT) to a cloud flow using the “Run a Desktop Flow” action. That cloud flow will then use the Dataverse connector to create a new row in the Dataverse table.

    Highlevel steps:
    To insert PAD output into Dataverse:
    1) PAD --> Outputs PC_DT
    2) Cloud Flow --> Run Desktop Flow (Created in the first step, gets output) --> Use Dataverse "Add a new row" --> Insert PC_DT value

    STEP 1 - In PAD: Set the Output Variable
    In Power Automate Desktop:
    Ensure the value you want to return is stored in a variable e.g., PC_DT.
    At the end of your PAD flow, define it as an output parameter:
    Go to Parameters tab --> Add output parameter
    Name: PC_DT
    Type: Text (or appropriate data type)
    Assign your PAD variable to the output.

    STEP 2 - In Power Automate Cloud: Create a Flow
    Create an Automated / Instant cloud flow:
    Add action --> Run a Desktop Flow.
    Select:
    Your PAD flow
    Your machine (machine group or single machine)

    Under Input parameters, map any needed PAD inputs.
    PAD will return output(s), including PC_DT.
    When the cloud flow runs, it will produce:
    Outputs:
         PC_DT : "your PAD output value"

    STEP 3 - Insert into Dataverse Table
    Add new action:
    Microsoft Dataverse --> Add a new row

    Choose the target table (e.g., new_mytable).
    Map the PAD output to the Dataverse column:
    Column: e.g., new_outputvalue
    Value: PC_DT (from the “Run a Desktop Flow” output)
    Example mapping inside the Dataverse "Add a new row" action:
         new_outputvalue = @{outputs('Run_a_desktop_flow')?['PC_DT']}
     
    STEP 4 - Save & Test
    Run the cloud folw --> it triggers PAD.
    PAD returns the PC_DT value.
    Cloud flow inserts a new Dataverse row with that value.

    Try and let me know, thanks!
